Relish breathtaking vistas
from our mountaintop gazebo or your own balcony. Rekindle romance over a
picnic lunch at one of our secluded overlooks or at the edge of our
peaceful pond. Delight in the kaleidoscopic carpet of flowering plants
(last count 1,300) that unfolds spring through autumn along our
limitless hiking
trails.
Listen to the music sung by the myriad of birds that call our mountain
their home. Rediscover wonder in a cathedral of old-growth trees which
opens onto a cascading waterfall. Stroll along our mile-long border with
The Great Smoky Mountains National Park or explore the Park through our
private
entrance.
Relax in our Jacuzzi or
sauna or unwind in your room with a steam shower and then snuggle by the
wood-burning fireplace. Curl up with a book from our library or nap in a
hammock on one of our secluded hideaways.
Recharge on our indoor racquetball court or savor more sedate pursuits such as
horseshoes, badminton, or croquet. Rejuvenate with freshly-squeezed lemonade at
"high" tea time (you're at 5,000 feet, remember). Indulge each evening in a
memorable gourmet meal prepared by our remarkable chefs who use pristine
mountain water and our own Swag-grown herbs and vegetables.

mountaintop aerie secluded on the North Carolina side of the Smokies, an hour
west of Asheville." Town and Country calls the meals at The Swag
"sophisticated."
